Nadezhda Savchenko, who was sentenced in Russia to 22 years in prison, may be exchanged for a group of people who are serving prison terms in the US, including Viktor Bout and Konstantin Yaroshenko, an informed source told Interfax.
"Currently, consultations are underway, including through confidential channels, on the possibility of releasing Savchenko through a swap. The Russian side proposed a list of its citizens in exchange for whom it is ready to release the former Ukrainian soldier," one of the sources said.
The presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said yesterday that no actions linked to Savchenko’s handover have been taken.
